Just in case you didnt know - When rolling w/ the Mabari, make sure to look for "landmarks" whenever in a new area. Take control of him, run over there and whizz on the landmark. He then gets "Mabari Dominance" in that area, +2 to str/con/will

I cracked up the first time it accidentally happened. Was cruising around scouting and checking things out, clicked on a landmark, and he lifted his leg and peed on it! My jaw dropped!

That was actually just one more thing that solidified my love for the game, that level of dog behaviour detail. Now youre making me want to play it again, Celeste!
